Daniel and Andrei, please see the new but I just opened: Bug #499013. As this is a new device, a new bug should be opened, specially if this bug is already marked as fix released.
Andrei, I changed exactly the same things as you and my new kernel is working great. I've now all the keys and functions of this keyboard.
I followed the alternate build method described at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile#AltBuildMethod. Additionally, I've changed /etc/modules so that the hid_apple module is loaded right at boot time. Loading it later did not work for me either. Maybe you also want to add the option "fnmode=2" if the key F1 to F12 should be the default.
Anyways, please follow up any issues regarding this new make of the Apple Wireless Keyboard at the bug mentioned above.
